Highlights
Pet care experience
Vibes. Walks. Belly Rubs.
I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and I can’t imagine a home without them. I currently have a sweet 40-lb red heeler who loves making new friends! Dogs are welcome on the furniture, and I’m comfortable using a crate if that’s part of their routine. I’m also open to hosting more than one guest dog at a time, so your pup will never feel lonely. I’m active and love to stay busy, so you can count on plenty of exercise, attention, and care.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Sam is always the best!! Elphege loves going over for daycare and is so well cared for. Sam sends tons of photos and he’s always having a blast in them.

Daisy had so much fun with Samantha! I appreciated the quick responses and the daily updates. We packed Daisy’s food by meal due to some dietary issues she has been having, and Samantha followed the plan and kept us posted about her eating throughout the week. We will be using her again!

Samantha watched Daisy for the day and she came home happy! I ended up needing to extend Daisy’s stay by 30 minutes, and Samantha was easy to communicates with and was able to watch Daisy for a little extra time with no issues.

Samantha was great! She sent us so many pictures of our pup and he seemed like he had a great time! Lots of walks and playtime in the yard

Samantha was so great with our dog! Will definitely rebook her again if we ever need a sitter.

Our dog was very well taken care of and we got lots of photos and updates! I would definitely book with Samantha again.

Schedule
I have a hybrid schedule between the office and WFH. I work from home the majority of the week allowing me to keep your dog company.

Safety, trust & environment
Whether it’s playtime in my fully fenced yard, long walks to the nearby park, or just plenty of snuggles on the couch, I make sure every pup feels happy, safe, and loved.

A typical day
Dogs will have plenty of opportunity for exercise! Ball is life for my dog, Shep, so we are out in the yard playing fetch multiple times a day. We also go on a long walk twice a day, stopping at our favorite park to get all the sniffs!

- I’d love to know what your dog’s normal day looks like. How they like to spend their time, any quirks or habits, feeding schedule, and anything else that helps them feel at home. For all new boarding clients, I hold initial meet & greets at Zuni Park. This allows us to safely introduce the dogs, go over routines, and make sure it’s a great fit for everyone. If we both decide to move forward, your dog will be cared for in my home in a safe, dog-friendly environment. I’m always happy to answer any questions to help you feel comfortable!
